Mariner Wealth Advisors, a national wealth advisory firm with 20 officers across the United States, is continuing its aggressive expansion with the addition of two new advisors in the Omaha office, Mariner Wealth announced Monday.
Joining the firm as senior wealth advisors are Jim Siemonsma and Ed Meekins, both former advisors at a financial services firm in Omaha, who served clients with a total of more than $600 million in assets.
The hire is part of Mariner Wealth’s restarting a campaign to expand its operations.
“We believe in the sprinter's mentality. Run really hard and then rest/recover and do it all over again,” says Marty C. Bicknell, CEO and president of Mariner Wealth. “We had a tremendous amount of growth in a very short period of time and we wanted to digest that growth, get it integrated.
“It’s very important to us to keep the promises we make to our new partners. That means onboarding them right and setting them up for growth,” he adds. “Our pipeline looks good and the next 18 to 24 months looks very strong for adding partner firms to our organization.”
